A groundwater contamination vulnerability map of the aquifers of the Sorrentine peninsula, Italy, has been produced using a Geographical Information System (GIS). The parametric method SINTACS has been applied in this prevalently karstic area. This method allows a detailed definition of vulnerability, providing a specific set of weights for karstic, fissured and porous hydrogeological environments. The final map shows the influence of the morphological and lithological setting on the contamination vulnerability assessment.

Abstract
A groundwater contamination vulnerability map of the aquifers of the Sorrentine peninsula, Italy, has been produced using a Geographical Information System (GIS). The parametric method SINTACS has been applied in this prevalently karstic area. This method allows a detailed definition of vulnerability, providing a specific set of weights for karstic, fissured and porous hydrogeological environments. The final map shows the influence of the morphological and lithological setting on the contamination vulnerability assessment.File in questo prodotto:
